Three Oaks
Welcome to Three Oaks, where smalltown USA charm meets Harbor Country’s arts and cultural hub.
Three Oaks’ patriotism goes back more than a century. Former U.S. President William McKinley visited the village to dedicate a war memorial following the Spanish-American war. Today, the residents of Three Oaks take honoring the flag seriously, as the village hosts the nation’s largest annual Flag Day celebration.
